I just "wasted" 2.5 hours at work catching up on Saturday-Sunday posts, when I need to be getting returns done as the tax season deadline approaches. Some of the back & forth personal bs i skipped. I can't wait for kickoff. Don't have time to grill up anything great, but leftovers, chips & cheese and some High Life I bought to support my WI heritage will do nicely.

Client called this morning and wants to drop his tax stuff on Saturday. I told him to get in here ASAP and he will be lucky to get it done. Way to procrastinate for 5 3/4 months and then dump it on me with 4 business days to finish.
We have extra special discount rates for our clients who do this. Privately we call it the "Asshole Discount". Suffice it to say the last 4 days before each tax deadline was always very profitable. Since it is the same folks every year, and every deadline, they happily pay the bill, and we happily accomodate their schedule....

Two can play at that game.
I just do corporate now, so I'm wrapping up the state/federal project that got rolling in early June. Back when I did personal stuff that used to piss me off.
I'm chatting live with a helpful support person in India. Anyone have anything they want me to say?
Tell them Scott said Kashmir should belong to Pakistan. And I think the faucets in the Taj Mahal were kind of cheap.
I gave him unfettered access to my computer to install software. Apparently I can't be trusted with such a monumental task. I was two seconds away from pulling up the brett favre picture in the GC, but he started mouse fighting me when I tried moving the cursor.

Ever have those mornings where it seems you just can't possibly consume enough caffeine to get you going? I mean a non-Monday. You feel like you need two pieces of scotch tape to keep your eyelids open. And of course one more piece for your nose to complete the funny face...

2 Excedrin® Migraine and a 12 oz. Coke will cure almost anything.

The chances I'll ever buy an actual CD are slim to none, so I decided it's finally time to import the old CD collection onto the computer. What a pain in the ass this is going to be.

I got a flu shot this morning and now feel like shit.
My strategy, as always, is to encourage my co-workers to get a flu shot so they don't make me sick.
I'm not the least little bit afraid of needles. I'm afraid of weakened strains of viruses triggering biochemical reactions in my body.

I have always thought that this would be a great business for a high school/college kid. Drop off a box of CDs and a computer for a few days and get it done.
After lunch the players lounged about the hotel patio watching the surf fling white plumes high against the darkening sky. Clouds were piling up in the west… Vince Lombardi frowned.

My 12 year old daughter took care of mine - and I gave her 20 iTunes songs for her troubles.
